Coughing for Cystic Fibrosis: Kinabalu

Kinabalu

Here is the certificate I received! It is not entirely correct as I believe I would've only reached 4000 meters, or maybe 4050. Last night I saw the many photos that the rest of us had taken on the Via Ferrata section and on the summit. Makes me want to go back! I know I did the right thing, was glad I had the oxymeter to remind me of how dangerously low my oxygen levels were at that height. If by some miracle my lungfunction goes up to 70% I'll be back!!

It was possibly the hardest thing I have ever attempted.

Raising Awareness for CF

This was originally the website for Vietnam to Singapore, 5100kms by bicycle through SE Asia, and the Mount Kinabalu Climb, but that is now in the past! I did the Coughing in the Sails regatta in Sydney, and later a bicycle ride from Melbourne to Sydney on a Dutch City Bicycle (we all need a challenge!), all of these raised valuable funding and awareness for Cystic Fibrosis! The big one of course was in 2007 when I cycled from Paris to Istanbul, 5000kms.

Since then we have continued to raise funds and awareness for Cystic Fibrosis and Organ Donations through hiking 800kms across Spain along the historic pilgrimage route of El Camino de Santiago de Compostella.
